Cellulose composites containing active constituents of coffee and tea: a prospective novel wound dressing

Abstract

Cellulose-based wound dressings are increasingly in demand due to their biocompatibility and extracellular matrix (ECM) mimicking properties.

Recent advances of hydrogels as smart dressings for diabetic wounds

“…At the same time, it exhibits high moisturizing performance and can maintain the wound in a moist environment conducive to healing, preventing excessive dryness. 65–67…”

“…At the same time, it exhibits high moisturizing performance and can maintain the wound in a moist environment conducive to healing, preventing excessive dryness. [65][66][67] In addition, the shape of the dressing is often prefabricated, which makes it difficult to fit the shape of different wounds and can only cover a part of the wound, which brings some inconvenience to patients in changing dressings and daily life. Moreover, while closely sealing the wound, the dressing impedes the patient's visual observation of the wound state, making it difficult to judge the healing of the wound.…”

Emerging trends in nano-based antidiabetic therapeutics: a path to effective diabetes management

“…It is evident that the molecular architecture of the localized wound area changes continuously and thus, the traditional therapeutic approaches remain ineffective. 120,121 During wound healing, a cascade of sequential events leads to the restoration of damaged tissue. 122,123 In a nutshell, diabetic wound healing takes place in four phases, namely, haemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodelling.…”
